Sophisticated quest.: You are likely aware that hot baths used to be a way to diagnose ms, but that does not mean you have it. Your shaking could well be nonspecific to the temperature changes after emerging from the bath. But if you are indeed worried, get this addressed. See a local neurologist and likely get reassured.

Chill: After a hot bath, your thermostat is reset and as you cool, your master gland senses this a big change in temperature as you cool down and you may get chilly, just like after a fever (wherein it would be rigor). Remember always ask your pmd, he/she has more of your past and family history.
